{Ragna’s POV}

For a moment, I simply stared.

Liam stood outside the cell exactly where Milena had been looking, and before I could stop myself, our eyes met.

That was when I realized I was smiling.

The realization hit so suddenly that it almost felt physical.

What was I doing?

My smile vanished immediately, and I looked away, disturbed less by Liam’s presence than by my own reaction to it. Nothing about my current situation justified smiling. I was sitting inside a dungeon beneath the Palace. T

  • All Is Fair In Love And Blood   Chapter 38 ~ Right

    {Ragna’s POV}For a moment, I simply stared.Liam stood outside the cell exactly where Milena had been looking, and before I could stop myself, our eyes met.That was when I realized I was smiling.The realization hit so suddenly that it almost felt physical.What was I doing?My smile vanished immediately, and I looked away, disturbed less by Liam’s presence than by my own reaction to it. Nothing about my current situation justified smiling. I was sitting inside a dungeon beneath the Palace. The Kingdom was preparing for an attack. My father had spent the last several hours dismantling everything I thought I knew about my life, my mother, and myself. Somewhere above us, powerful men were probably discussing whether I should be executed now or later.There was absolutely nothing amusing about any of that.Yet I had smiled.At Liam.The thought was irritating enough that I immediately pushed it away.Unfortunately, Milena chose that exact moment to speak.“Goodness.”The word escaped h

  • All Is Fair In Love And Blood   Chapter 37 ~ Fake And Real Prisoners

    {Ragna’s POV}For a moment, nobody moved.The corridor seemed to shrink around us as the King’s gaze settled on our little group, drifting from my father to me and then back again. The shock on his face lasted only a second, but it was enough. It was enough for me to understand that he had recognized something he was never supposed to recognize.Beside me, Milena had gone rigid.I couldn’t blame her.If there was a worse person to be discovered by, I had yet to meet them.The King’s presence had never frightened me before. Even now, standing in the center of a corridor surrounded by councilmen and armed guards, he still looked more like a man carrying an overfed cub beneath his robes than the ruler of an entire kingdom. But fear had very little to do with appearances. Fear had everything to do with consequences, and the consequences standing before us now were enormous.My heart had only just begun to quicken when I felt fingers close suddenly around my wrist.The movement was so unex

  • All Is Fair In Love And Blood   Chapter 36 ~ Worst Person

    {Ragna's POV}“This is my revelation.” My father had just spoken— pouring out a lot and I was dazed and considering it when something cut me off. A scream ripped through the air.Not the startled shout of someone reacting to bad news or the angry yell of a man demanding answers. This was different. There was something primal inside it, something that made the hairs on my arms rise before the sound had even finished echoing across the road. Another scream followed from somewhere farther away, then another after that, until the distant world seemed to awaken all at once.People were shouting.People were running.The attack was no longer something approaching.It had arrived.My father’s expression changed immediately. The man who had spent the last several minutes reopening old wounds and dismantling everything I thought I knew about myself seemed to disappear, and in his place stood a councilman, a survivor, a man who had apparently spent years expecting this exact day.“We need to

  • All Is Fair In Love And Blood   Chapter 35 ~ Speechless

    {Ragna's POV}“But not all of them died… and not all the cubs were killed.”The words settled heavily between us.For a moment, nobody spoke.I simply stared at him while my mind struggled to keep pace with everything he had already said. The story was absurd. It sounded like something an old drunk Blood would mutter after too much fermented root wine and too little sleep. Yet the more my father spoke, the less it felt like a story and the more it felt like a memory.A terrible memory.One he had spent years carrying alone.Milena swallowed.“So some of them survived?”My father nodded slowly.“Yes.”His gaze never left mine.“Some of the mothers escaped the slaughter. Injured. Broken. Hunted. But alive. And despite the King’s efforts, a cub survived also.” He said it again and something went heavy inside my chest.The feeling arrived before the understanding did.My father took another breath.“The King believed he had ended the bloodline. He believed he had prevented the future the r

  • All Is Fair In Love And Blood   Chapter 34 ~ Not All Of Them

    {Ragna’s POV}“You are the forbidden child of one of them.”The words lingered in the air long after my father finished speaking.For a moment, I genuinely wondered if I had heard him correctly.Then I decided I had.Which somehow made things worse.I stared at him while silence stretched between us, and the more I thought about what he had just said, the more ridiculous it sounded.Finally, I shook my head.“I knew it.”My voice came out flatter than I intended.“I knew this was bullshit.”My father didn’t react.“This just confirms it.”I pointed toward the distant direction of the Palace.“I need to get there before you start telling me dragons raised me in the woods.”With that, I turned and resumed walking.Or at least I intended to.Because before I had taken more than two steps, my father’s voice cut through the air behind me.“Your mother was once an Arena Blood.”My feet stopped. Everything stopped, and slowly, I turned around.“What did you just say?”His expression remained

  • All Is Fair In Love And Blood   Chapter 33 ~ The Truth And A Child

    {Ragna’s POV}“Is that your father?”Milena’s question hung between us, but I didn’t answer it. My attention remained fixed on the man standing a short distance away while a dozen unwanted thoughts crashed into each other inside my head. Some were angry. Some were confused. Most were things I had spent years refusing to think about.Unfortunately, he looked exactly the same as I remembered.Which was annoying.Time should have at least had the decency to make him uglier.“Ragna,” he said quietly. “This was the only way I could get to see you.”I stared at him for a moment before asking the only question that mattered.“Why am I here?”There was no point pretending we were about to have some emotional family reunion. If he had dragged me away from the Palace and brought me into the middle of nowhere, then he could start by explaining why.Milena finally recovered from her shock.“Good day master.” She turned to me. “A councilman is your father?”Her gaze moved between us several times

    {Ragna's POV}Waking up bruised should honestly qualify as my profession at this point.My ribs ached.My shoulders ached.My chin still throbbed from where the Head Iron Warden had planted her fist to my face yesterday. Meanwhile, the crowd had also contributed generously to my other sufferings. A

  • All Is Fair In Love And Blood   Chapter 14 ~ Still Breathing

    {Ragna’s POV}For a moment, I was really confused. I thought I was dead but then I had heard, “Stop”, so I remained there contemplating.Was I dead or was I not?Maybe “stop” is the first thing the Grim Reaper says in the afterlife?…Like, “Stop breathing you, earthling!”Seemed unlikely, but then

    {Ragna’s POV}Voices rang before I saw the bodies that owned them.But soon, that suspense was answered as two men barged into the scene, along with three other females of whom the head Iron Warden was among.“Look at her! You can tell just from that dirty expression.” One of them throated, disfigu

    {Ragna’s POV}“He that wasn’t supposed to be here” was here and I decided to keep calm.I didn’t crash out when I saw him in Selene’s kennel so I wasn't going to do that now.But then that plan was becoming increasingly difficult the longer I stared at him and that grin on his face.The fucker didn
